Definitions

  • the present application relates generally to dental appliance manufacture and methods therefor.
  • appliances exist in which the amount of advancement may be changed, but the changes result in a new fixed position of the mandible many times creating pain and discomfort.
  • Other appliances do not offer easily changed vertical or caudal displacement of the mandible to increase the effectiveness of the appliance.
  • the appliance of the present invention is to greatly reduce, or eliminate, sleep apnea and snoring, while alleviating temporomandibular joint problems, unwanted tooth movement and soreness, with complete adjustability of the appliance both in the amount of forward movement of the lower jaw, and in the amount of vertical bite opening.
  • Another object is a mandibular advancement appliance with high patient acceptance, comfort, and resilience for treatment success.
  • a method for manufacturing a dental appliance includes but is not limited to injection overmolding a thermoplastic polyster-containing material with an thermoplastic elastomer material to form a chemically bonded material; and thermo forming the injection overmolded chemically bonded material to form the dental treatment appliance.
  • a dental appliance in another aspect, includes a tray molded to cover a patient's teeth, the tray formed by thermoforming an overmolded layered composite polymeric material, the dental tray including a thermoplastic material of a first durometer configured for an exterior portion of the tray and a thermoplastic material of a second durometer configured for an interior portion of the tray.
  • Figure 1 A and IB are flow diagrams of a method in accordance with an embodiment of the subject matter of the present application.
  • Figure 2 illustrates a vacuum forming device for thermal forming plastic to a dental mold in accordance with an embodiment of the subject matter of the present application.
  • Figure 3 illustrates a dental appliance in accordance with an embodiment of the subject matter of the present application.
  • a dental appliance is formed by injection molding polymeric material; and thermo forming the injection molded chemically bonded material to form a dental appliance.
  • an injection molded material is used instead of using extruded material in a vacuum forming instrument. It has been discovered that the molecules of an extruded plastic that is vacuum formed for dental appliances become weaker through the thermoprocessing, resulting in a weaker, brittle product.
  • Embodiments herein are directed to different dental appliance techniques achieved by injection molding plastic for dental appliances instead of using extruded plastics.
  • the injection molding process allows not only for a stronger material, but avoids the requirement of glues or lamination processes by enabling overmolding.
  • Material used for the discs currently being used in the dental industry to make devices such as splints, TMJ pain appliances, bleaching trays, and sleep appliances are manufactured from extruded material.
  • the extrusion process is one that forces all of the molecules in the material to be aligned in one direction.
  • the current manufacture of the material is producing 4x8 foot sheets of plastic from which the discs are cut. This creates a disc that is strong in one direction, but creates weakness in other directions, thereby giving inconsistent results.
  • an injection molding process creates discs directly instead of cutting discs from a sheet of material already created by an extrusion process.
  • a method for a producing a dental appliance includes injection molding a thermoplastic elastomer to form a disc; and thermoforming the disc over a desired shape.
  • the thermoplastic elastomer is of a hardness of between 30 and 200 shoreA durometers.
  • the thermoforming can be by vacuum forming over a mold of a patient's teeth. In one embodiment, the thermoforming can be via an alternative to vacuum forming in which exact shape of the teeth is not necessary.
  • thermoplastic elastomer used for injection molding is chemically bonded to an amorphous material during a manufacturing process to form a two-shot disc.
  • Figure 1 is an exemplary flow diagram illustrates the method of manufacturing a dental appliance according to embodiments. More specifically, according to an embodiment, a Block 110 provides preparing a dental thermal-molded treatment appliance, by injection molding a thermoplastic polyester material to form a disc. Block 120 provides for thermoforming the disc over a shape to form the dental thermal- molded treatment appliance. In an embodiment, the thermalforming can be vacuum forming the thermoplastic polyester material onto a model of a patient's teeth such that the thermoplastic polyester material adheres to the mold of the patient's teeth.
  • the injection molding a thermoplastic polyester material to form a disc can include injection molding polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or glycol-modified
  • PTEG polyethylene terephthalate
  • Block 130 provides for injection overmolding a thermoplastic polyster material with a thermoplastic elastomer material to form a chemically bonded material.
  • Block 140 provides for thermoforming the injection overmolded chemically bonded material to form the dental treatment appliance.
  • the thermoforming can be vacuum forming such that the thermoplastic elastomer material side of the chemically bonded material adheres to a mold of the patient's teeth.
  • the injection molding via an overmolding process uses a copolyester and a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • the overmolding can use a polyethylene terephtalate (PTE) or a glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate (PTEG) as with a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
  • PTE polyethylene terephtalate
  • PTEG glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • the injection molding can include overmolding via a single injection molding cycle using a two-shot process.
  • a dental appliance results that includes a tray molded to cover a patient's teeth, the tray made of a thermoplastic material of a first durometer configured for an exterior portion of the tray, and thermoplastic material of a second durometer configured for an interior portion of the tray.
  • an overmolding of a polyethylene terephtalate (PTE) with a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) will result in a softer durometer and a harder durometer tray such that an interior portion of the tray is softer than than the exterior portion of the tray.
  • PTE polyethylene terephtalate
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • the dental appliance can include a second tray using one or more of the processes described herein.
  • the second tray can be an amorphous thermoplastic and the first tray can be formed by thermally molding an overmolded layered composite polymeric material or vice versa.
  • one or more arcuate members can be added to the trays for releasably attaching an elastic band to enable the dental appliance to treating sleep apnea.
  • the material is, preferably a material approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in the oral cavity such as PETG 6763 and GLS TPE 3060-1.
  • the dental appliance includes a elastomer polymeric material that is flexible, lightweight, translucent and adapts to the contours of the teeth to permit a self-retentive frictional contact between the device and the associated upper and lower posterior teeth.
  • the flexible material chemically bonded to a firm amorphous material via injection molding to provide resiliency while also providing retention where necessary.
  • the dual-sided appliance will provide better usage by the patient over the homogenously hard plastic material of prior appliances.

  • an "over-shot" of the elastomer material can be during a 60 second injection molding cycle.
  • the two materials become one injection overmolded chemically bonded material to form the dental treatment appliance.
  • the overmolding creates a stronger bond than lamination or any uses of glues.
  • One overmolding process is the two- shot injection molding, which involves injecting one material into a mold to form the initial part or section of a part. Once formed, a second material is injected into the mold to form the remainder of the part.
  • Two-shot molding requires that the two materials be compatible (chemically similar), or no bonding occurs.
  • the materials are harder and softer versions of thermoplastics that enable a harder amorphous material to be infused with a softer elastomer material.
  • the two shot, or dual shot process can be accomplished by injecting one material (usually hard material) in a mold and immediately injection shooting a second material (soft) while the first material is still hot.
  • the material for the hard portion of the disk is Eastman copolyester PETG 6763 or copolyester Tritan TX-1000, for example, the first shot injection molding.
